PROBLEM SOLVING ACTIVITY CLIMATE CHANGE AND …
A positive feedback loop increases the effect of the change and produces instability. In this case, the positive and negative naming of the loops do not indicate whether the feedback is good or bad. In climate change, a feedback loop is something that speeds up or slows down a warming trend. A positive feedback accelerates a temperature rise,

LAB ACTIVITY: HEAT, TEMPERATURE AND CONDUCTION
gml.noaa.gov2 Student Sheet 2 Cooling things by conduction works the same way as warming. This time, a hot metal spoon is put in room-temperature water. The faster-moving atoms in the spoon contact the slower-moving molecules in the water. The atoms in the spoon transfer some of their energy to the molecules in the water. The spoon will get
TEACHER BACKGROUND: SPECIFICS OF HEAT TRANSFER
gml.noaa.govIn a new scenario, a metal can containing hot water is placed in a Styrofoam cup containing cold water. Heat is transferred from the hot water to the cold water until both samples have the same temperature. The transfer of heat from the hot water through the metal can to the cold water is referred to as conduction.

TEACHER BACKGROUND: NATURAL CLIMATE CHANGE
gml.noaa.govmeans cooler summers and milder winters. Slow changes in the Earth’s orbit lead to small but climatically important changes in the strength of the seasons over tens of thousands of years. Climate feedbacks amplify these small changes, thereby producing ice ages. Solar variations - The Sun is the source of energy for the Earth’s climate system.

gml.noaa.govcorals display different sensitivities to changes in aragΩ and SST [Reynaud et al., 2003]. Considering that both these environmental parameters are likely to change considerably in the future, additional experiments on a variety of differing coral species will be crucial to obtain a better understanding of future coral reef stability.
